Disappearing player (with patch)

ChicagoSparty · 06-12-2006, 12:53 PM

Pre-spring training of the first year of a league, I traded Kerry Wood and a prospect for Magglio Ordonez.

Ordonez initially showed up on my roster screen, but not on my lineup screen, so I couldn't play him.

Then, I start the game today, and he doesn't even appear on the roster screen.

I did a search for his name, and he's listed as "Chicago Cubs (MLB)," so he should be on my roster, lineup, and all other screens for the parent club.

Okay, I saw this again. Traded for player, and then he doesn't show up on the roster screen. Anyone else having this?

He should be listed DFA. You need to go to your DFA list and put him on the secondary and active roster. Then he will be available to play for your big-league club.

Perfect. Much appreciated. I figured I might be doing something wrong.
